  • Sligo Bay) SAC (Site Code: 627)
    NPWS Cummeen Strand/Drumcliff Bay (Sligo Bay) SAC (site code: 627) Conservation objectives supporting document - Marine habitats and species Version 1 July 2013 Introduction Cummeen Strand/Drumcliff Bay (Sligo Bay) SAC is designated for the marine Annex I qualifying interests of Estuaries and Mudflats and sandflats not covered by seawater at low tide (Figures 1 and 2) and the Annex II species Phoca vitulina (harbour seal, also known as common seal). The Annex I habitat estuaries is a large physiographic feature that may wholly or partly incorporate other Annex I habitats including mudflats and sandflats within its area. Intertidal surveys were undertaken at this site in 2007 and 2010 (ASU, 2007; ASU, 2012) and an intertidal walkover in 2013, a subtidal survey was undertaken in 2010 (Aquafact, 2011). These data were used to determine the physical and biological nature of this SAC and overlapping Special Protection Areas (SPAs) of Drumcliff Bay SPA (site code 4013) and Cummeen Strand SPA (site code 4035). Records of harbour seal in the site have been compiled from historical Wildlife Service site visits and regional surveys (Summers et al., 1980; Warner, 1983; Harrington, 1990; Lyons, 2004). Aspects of the biology and ecology of Annex I habitats and Annex II species are provided in Section 1. The corresponding site-specific conservation objectives will facilitate Ireland delivering on its surveillance and reporting obligations under the EU Habitats Directive (92/43/EC). Ireland also has an obligation to ensure that consent decisions concerning operations/activities planned for Natura 2000 sites are informed by an appropriate assessment where the likelihood of such operations or activities having a significant effect on the site cannot be excluded.

    Sligo: COUNTY GEOLOGY OF IRELAND 1 SLIGOSLIGOSLIGO AREA OF COUNTY: 1,836 square kilometres or 708 square miles COUNTY TOWN: Sligo OTHER TOWNS: Strandhill, Tobercurry, Ballymote GEOLOGY HIGHLIGHTS: Ben Bulben and Truskmore Plateau, caves and karst, vanishing lake, Carboniferous sea-floor fossils, Ice Age landforms. AGE OF ROCKS: Precambrian; Devonian to Carboniferous, Paleogene Streedagh Point and Ben Bulben Lower Carboniferous limestones with the isolated mountain of Ben Bulben in the distance. This was carved by ice sheets as they moved past during the last Ice Age. 2 COUNTY GEOLOGY OF IRELAND: Sligo Geological Map of County Sligo Pale Purple: Precambrian Dalradian rocks; Pale yellow: Precambrian Quartzite; Green: Silurian sediments; Red: Granite; Beige:Beige:Beige: Devonian sandstones; Blue gray:Blue gray: Lower Carboniferous sandstones; Light blue: Lower Carboniferous limestone; Brown:Brown:Brown: Upper Carboniferous shales. Geological history The oldest rocks in the county form a strip of low hills extending along the south side of Lough Gill westwards past Collooney towards the Ox Mountains, with a small patch on Rosses Point north-west of Sligo town. They are schists and gneisses, metamorphosed from 1550 million year old [Ma] sedimentary rocks by the heat and pressure of two episodes of mountain building around 605 Ma and 460 Ma. Somewhat younger rocks, around 600 Ma, form the main massif of the Ox Mountains in the west of the county. They include schists and quartzites, once sedimentary rocks that have been less severely metamorphosed than the older rocks further east. In the far south of the county, around Lough Gara and the Curlew Mountains, are found a great thickness of conglomerates (pebble beds) and sandstones, with some layers rich in volcanic ash and fragments of lava.
